Plants vs. Zombies

After Angry Birds, a strong contender for the most beloved iPad game is Plants vs. Zombies. Part action game and part tower defense game, Plants vs. Zombies gets players strategizing about how they'll ward off zombies using different kinds of greenery, with different properties and undead-repelling powers. For a zombie title, the game is actually quite lighthearted—I might even call it cute. The time travelling sequel nearly ruined the franchise with its obnoxious use of microtransactions. So the original is the only PvZ you need.
